I have been able to finish one more Hinton Hunt figure, the first of the British 11th Light Dragoons. The remaining five are well on their way now and I should have the full set finished by the end of the week. Or so it says on "The Plan".

Chaaaarge!

I have also been busy with more plastic British artillery for the Waterloo diorama which should be my next post.

Since Ian and Roy decided upon their Waterloo re-fight later this year packets of unpainted Hinton Hunt figures have been flying around the globe. These chaps made it as far as Essex!

A Sharpe looking unit I trust you will agree?

I have a half dozen more to finish tomorrow before moving on to the British cavalry and a "mystery figure" that will be unveiled on Ian's blog - probably next week. More pictures before the Easter weekend is over.

Waterloo to Mons

As a teenager I was bought a copy of Michael Glover's book "Warfare From Waterloo to Mons". The legions of Airfix conversions I created are now long gone but I still have my original copy, it is still a great read.

This blog is my continuing attempt recreate the chapters of the book in miniature.
